Beagle / Bulldog Mix

Is the Beagle / Bulldog Mix right for you?

The basics:RightPet does not advocate the intentional cross-breeding of purebred dogs. But the reality is that most dogs available for adoption at shelters and rescues are mixed breeds. We think it might be helpful to hear from owners of these mixes to see what traits can be found in these dogs who are desperately needing homes.

The first generation Beabull is a cross between a pure Beagle and a pure Bulldog, although subsequent generations may have different proportions of the two breeds in the mix.

Appearance / health:
While all mixed-breed dogs can vary in appearance, Beabulls are notable for how much some individuals can have the longer Beagle snout while others have the Bulldog's flat face.

Behavior / temperament:
While it's impossible to predict the exact traits inherited by a mixed-breed dog, the Beabull can be particularly unpredictable because you don't know whether you're getting the high energy of the Beagle or the rather more indolent nature of the Bulldog. Some owners report that their dogs can be stubborn.
